Display Options Above Threads - as seen on vbulletin.org · **Released**: 07-14-2007

This template mod will streamline and relocate the "Display Options" dropdown menus to the top of your threads list on forumdisplay, as seen here at vbulletn.org in the modification areas.

As part of this move, we'll also change the look of the "Active Users"/Moderators panel remaining at the bottom of the page. (Screenshots of both sections are below.)

This modification should work on vB versions 3.6.5 - 3.6.7 PL 1.

Important: There are two different versions of the instructions: one for a default setup, and one for people using the excellent Thread Prefixes mod by Mystics. Please make sure you choose the correct version for your setup!

(Of course, if you've installed or applied other mods that have altered the forumdisplay template, you may need to adjust the instructions accordingly.)

Update on May 10, 2008: I'm happy to say that the 3.7.0 version of this mod is now available! Note that there's now only one set of instructions in 3.7.0, since Mystics prefix mod no longer applies. If his mod is ever updated, however, I'll be happy to include a new batch of instructions. Especially 'cause I prefer his prefixes to vB's!

Update on July 27, 2007: New version fixes issue with AJAX inline editing thread titles. If you've already installed the older version, please use these instructions to correct the problem. Thanks to Skavenger for the heads-up.

Live Demo: Working Demo at My Site. (This will show you the Display Options section; I don't use the "Active Users" part of the mod.)

This is my first template modification release, and I hope it's helpful. Many thanks to vbulletin.org for the inspiration, not to mention years of providing an amazingly helpful community.

It would be nice if you could only have it show it at the top if prefixes were used in that forum otherwise it shows it at the bottom. Would there be a way of doing this?

I really think this should be integrated into the thread prefix mod.

Here are the default setting edits in Template Modification System (TMS) XML format, for those that already have TMS installed.

Does this work in 3.7.x?

Seems like a great hack to just let wither away on the vine...

Hi there! I haven't installed 3.7 yet, but I will soon, I promise. So far I don't see any reason it shouldn't, but there have been enough changes to the code that I'm sure the instructions might need some major tweaking.

Skavenger · #39 02-21-2008, 12:53 AM

I'll be wainting for the update too, thanks again!

I am really looking forward to a version for 3.7. Marked as installed and waiting for an update.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
